"all Tex* of the Letter or trie Xtpn1
llcan Candidate for the Tice-Presidency
-The Party Platform Meets His Views
on All Questions Involved in the Cam
paign.
NEW YORK, Oct 3.Hon. L. Morton
has written the following letter of accept
ance:
"RHINECLIFF, N. Y Oct. 2, 1888.Hon. 3T. M.
Estee and Others, CommitteeGentlemen: In
making formal acceptance of my nomination
as the Republican candidate for the Vice-Pres
idency I desire to express my grateful appre
ciation of the confidence reposed In me
by the convention. Th duties devolv
ing on the Vice-President as presiding
officer of the Senate, and in certain contingen
cies a participant in the legislation of Con
gress, make it proper that the people should
know stinctly and unreservedly the political
views of the candidate who may be presented
for their suffrages. It fortunately happens
that this duty for myself is easily discharged
by referring to the pr.nciples embodied in the
resolutions unanimously adopted by the Na
tional convention. These resolutions, une
Q.nivocsvl and comprebbntan in ctiifcraMsteT, re
flect my personal convictions and have my
hearty approval.
It is difficult, however, in a political cam
paign to fix popular attention ou more thaa
one issue, and in the lend.ng election every
voter in tne United States clearly sees th.tt
the controlling question is whether the protec
tive tariff duties now force shall bes re
duced as to destroy their efficiency or whether
these duties shall be retained with such modifl
eat ons and adjustments as shall better adapt
them to the great end of protecting the vast
and important industries of the whole oountiy.
The Republican platform, while recogniz
ing the necessity of reducing the revenue, de
clares that this reduction must not be made at
tbe expense ot tliese industries and of Ameri
can labor. The American people have now en
joyed the protective system for a longer con
tinuous period than ever before in the history
of the Nat cnal Government. Th result ie
that for more than a quarter of'a century they
have realized a degree of industr.al aud finan
cial prospeuty unprecedented In this country
and never equaled in any other.
'The pressing reason given for once again
trying the old experiment of a revenue tariff
without protection as a motive or end is that
the present tariff has produced, and is produc
ing, a surplus in the Treasury. Bu is it not
easily within the wisdom of Congress to adjust
she National income to the National expend
iture without sacrificing or even imperilling an
industrial system which has brought untold ad
vantages to the entire country.'
"Admitting that the present tariff by lapse
of time and tbe large expans on of trade which
it has stimulated needs revis ou, is it not wiser
and more patriotic to revise it with a careful
regard to the interest of piotectlon than with
the purpose of lessening its protective feat
ures? These are some of the que3tioas which
must be answered at the National polls in
November. Fo myself, as a citizen and as
a candidate, 1 do not hesitate to deelare
that f'om long observat'on I am an unwaver
ing friend of the protective system. In a busi
ness life now extending over forty years I have
tnessed and compared the effect upon the
country of a revenue tariff tending to free
trade with a protective tariff encouraging
home industries. Under the former the devel
opment of the country has alwuys been ar
rested, while under the latter it has uniformly
been promoted.
"To the men who earn' their bread by the
sweat of their brow the difference between the
two systems is that of narrowing chances on
the one hand and expanding opportuni
ties on the other. Free trade would open
America to competition with the whole world.
Protection reserves America for Americans,
native and adopted. Th industrial system of
a country is as sensitive as its public credit. A
hostile movement creates distrust la the
public mind and confidence, the only
basis of successful trade, becomes im
paired. Ne enterprises wither in the
bud, capital grows timid. the field ot
labor is contracted, and pressure for employ
ment inevitably reduces the wages of ail worlc
lng-men. With the vies of the convention so
frankly expressed in its resolutions upon aU
other questions of public interest I find
myself in hearty accord. In relation to
silver and its important bearing upon
the National currency, as well as
its connection with and influence on the pros
perity ol large sections of our common coun
try in its advocacy of a judicious settlement
of the public lands policy in urging the neces
sity for better coast defenses and the duty we
owe to the slipping interests of the country,
the plattorm but repeats the approved prin
ciples of the Republican party
"TUo Republican plsitlorm proposes a, dis
tinctly American policy not one of narrowness
and bigotry, hut one broad and philanthropic
a policy that best helps the whole world by the
example of a great, grow n?, powerful Nation
founded on the equality of every one before the
law.
"It :s for the American people to develop
and cultivate the continent to which in the
providence of God tbey have fallen hetrs.
They should adopt a policy whieh looks stead
ily to this great end. With no spirit of narrow
ness toward other peoples, but rather In the
highest interest of all, they should find under
their own flag a held of limitless advance in the
direction of the improvement, the prosperity
and the happiness ot man. Very respectfully
yours, LEVI P. MOHTON."

CHICAG O, Oct. 3.The Traders' Bank, one
of the old financial institutions of Chicago,
failed yesterday, and its president, Joseph
O. Rutter, is lying at his hom e, 391 S
perior street, at the point of death. The
pected demise of that official is assigned as
one of the principal cause3 contributing tc
the suspension of the bank's business. Th
nominal assets of the concern are said tc
be ?0W,386.20, while the actual liabilities
will, it is believed, reach at least $?00,00ft
and there are other obligations which will
swell the total to almost as great a ligrtrt:
as is given for the assets.

between the barge and the dock and was
either drowned or crushed to death. Th
other two jumped and escaped. The fin

Within three years after the responsibili

him were assumed, he is reported a broken

nently shattered.
George Law is another young mau left
with millions of money, who is reported
among the "wrecks." His father, bred a
stone-mason, was of gigantic size and
strength, with commensurate brain power,
so he became a-great contractor, then a
railroad king and left half a dozen millions

were reared in the lap of luxury and devel
oped into intellectual pigmies.
The great men of our country have not
as a rule, come from the elegant mansions
of the cities, but from the Log- Cabins of the
rural districts. Simple ways of living,
freedom from dissipation and enervating
pleasures, simple remedies for disease,
fectiveand which leave no poison in the
system, develop brawny, brainy men, who
compel the world to recognize their
strength and power.
The wholesome, old-fashioned Log Cabin
remedies are the safest and surest for fa m
ily use. Our grandmothers knew how to
prepare the teas and syrups of roots, herbs
and balsams which drive disease out of the
system by natur al methods and leave no
after ill effects. The most potent of these
old-time remedies were, after long and
searchi ng investigation, secured by
Warner of safe cure fame, and are now
DUt out for the healing of the nations" in
the Warner's Log Cabin remedies.

of the age, without wrecking health and
